STUTTGART, Germany — A dramatic stoppage-time goal saw Hungary beat Scotland 1-0 at the European Championship to wreck its opponent's hopes of reaching the knockout stage of a major tournament for the first-ever time. Late substitute Kevin Csoboth scored his first international goal in the 10th minute of stoppage time as Hungary secured third spot in Group A. The match was overshadowed by a serious-looking injury to Barnabás Varga midway through the second half. The Hungary forward was taken to hospital and will likely need an operation after fracturing several bones in his face. Hungary faces an anxious wait to find out if its three points will be enough to reach the round of 16 as one of the four best third-place teams.
